Hospital Social Work Roles and Decision Making


Hospital Social Work Roles and Decision Making is a scholarly work, published in 1982 in ''Social Work in Health Care''. The main subjects of the publication include nursing home, social work, medicine, medical emergency, position, professionalization, work, nursing, control in organization management, psychology, and decision making. A comparison of selected New Jersey hospitals in 1975 and 1981 suggests that despite intensive attention to cost control, hospital social work departments have continued to expand and assume an increasingly important role in the hospital.
